Black Power Is My Religion


I don't believe in gods, any of them. I don't see a reason to believe anything is out there, making decisions for me that I don't know about and I don't see the point in lying to people, to fit in or to exploit your emotions via your faith (as many do) to further my position. Plus with all the fucked up shit mainstream religions and its members do, gives me even greater reason not to believe. I don't put anyone down who do believe, just to let you know my position on the matter. But that does not mean I am not dogmatic about other things. In fact I am very dogmatic about my belief that black people should do for each other like everyone else in the world does. I am atheist to all gods, but religiously I wake up with my mind focused on social investing and real freedom. By any means and by strict guidelines that I have put in place that I don't deviate from.

My religion isBlack power. People like Marcus Garvey are who I look to  get inspiration. I think it is the most important thing for my generation and future black generations to understand. Black people have been following other peoples religions for several hundred years now, with no gains. From Islam to Christianity, the religions that black people have been following have pushed the agenda of the race of people that started those religions and made "black" and black people inferior and apart of a less than culture; while making the men of those races religion heroes and people to follow and attempt to be like. You don't just see this in the united states, it is everywhere you see black people alone side non-black people with Hebrew based religion.  But again and I promise you, my attempt in this post is not to harp on other peoples religions to big up my own. I just want to clarify that what I believe is something very different, yet very similar. Many religious people in the Black communities (particularly in the majority black cities like Detroit, Baltimore, and Atlanta) Some Black people have been exposed to this Black atheist in a form I disagree with; were you see Black people taking their lead from white atheist that have a white nationalist agenda. This is group of Black atheist are also in opposition to my belief. I reject imperialism and western advancement into Black lands and communities. That includes Black cities in the united states, other communities in the diaspora, and especially on the continent of Africa. I can no more except white nationalism, a religion in it self; than I can except white and arab religions. For reasons I stated on previous post I think we must except Black nationalism in networking form.

My Black power religion is like any other non-god religions. If I had a country to call my own I would would be a nationalist to that country, but sense I don't, I have to work at getting one and the only way I know how to get to that point of having my own country is to be religious about obtaining power for myself and people like me. I must spend every waking day with my mind stayed on obtaining that power. I have to follow a strict guideline of Black business, Black education, and Black community.
Still nothing new hear, I am still speaking on the importance of Social Investing. We as a people have been focusing on things that have nothing to do with us for far to long. White and arab gods can't save us, but if we are as dogmatic about Black Power as we have been about white and arab gods we can change our situation over night.
